  • As a boy swings from a tree, canoeists enjoy a day's paddling down the River Lesse, Belgium's prime kayaking destination  in the southern Ardennes region. At Anseremme, south of the town of Dinant, the adventurers negotiate their way down 21 km of gentle fresh water through the beautiful Belgian gorges and forests. Before plunging down a weir (Barrage in French) near a camp site they are pelted by splashing water from campers in the water. The red canoes have been hired for the day from 'Kayaks Ansiaux' and another rival company who rent blue boats. Families and young people make the slow journey along the Lesse, Paddles match the colours of the canoes and they all glint off a strong afternoon sun during the high-season holiday month. Most commonly routes start in Han and go all the way down to Dinant, where the Lesse meets the Meuse.

  • Vertical jets create a curtain of water as a child flexes his muscles, shivering from cold water cold and other young Londoner children spontaneously shed their clothes and get wet in a splash experience at the South Bank during the free Mayor's Thames Festival celebration along the capital's river. In the heat of summer, when the capital's temperatures have climbed to levels when urban children just want to play in any water they can find, this feature on the upper-level of the newly-renovated Festival Hall (seen on the left) satisfies their reckless and thrilling childhood, allowing them to await ever-changing jets of water pressure that alternates between off and on. The kids are drenched as they find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.

  • As the surf splashes around him, a young man stands on iron railings and wipes his face, on 20th October 1990, in Bournemouth, England.

  • A rather obese woman stands in the waves at the seaside resort of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk. With hands behind her back and fingers interlocked the lady wears a turquoise bathing costume that just about fits her ample, wide body. Her bottom is large as are her legs that have cellulite on the tops of her thighs. She looks left alone, a solitary person standing with her back to the viewer - or perhaps she is standing guard, keeping watch on children as they play safely in the sea. Water splashes against her lower legs and is frozen still by a fast shutter speed. It is a fine, bright sunny afternoon on this Eastern coast of England, more noted for very changeable weather rather than the heatwave experienced here.

  • A woman police officer (WPC) stands with white paint plashed over her uniform during a public protest over the Poll Tax policies of Margaret Thatcher's government in 1990. It is dark and the trouble has been growing throughout the evening when the paint was thrown by unknown protesters. Angry crowds, demonstrating against Thatcher's local authority tax, eventually stormed the Whitehall area and then London's West End, setting fire to a construction site and cars, looting stores up Charing Cross Road and St Martin's Lane. The anti-poll tax rally in central London erupted into the worst riots seen in the city for a century. Forty-five police officers were among the 113 people injured as well as 20 police horses. 340 people were arrested.

  • A young woman walking along a London street is about to be splashed by a passing London double-decker bus at a flooded bus stop. After heavy rain that fell over the capital, puddles or filthy water lies in gullies and gutters of the urban streets - including this bus stop in Aldwych. The young woman is aware of the camera and walks in smart office shoes on the wet pavement (sidewalk) as the bus draws to a halt ahead. But she is more self-conscious than taking precaution not to get wet. The moment before her soaking is caught as the water laps across the kerb and into her path. In the background are the West End theatres whose productions attract drama fans from across the world.

  • A pair of awkwardly splayed legs disappear into the cold, murky waters of the Serpentine Lake in London's Hyde Park. Having just dived head-first off a platform that juts out into the lake, the person is half in and half out and the splash is frozen in time. He or she is in incopetent diver with such ungainly plunge into the waters. It is otherwise a quiet moment. The water is largely undisturbed apart from the dive and buoy markers float to for a boundary line to keep rowing boats and bathers apart. This bathing area is where the normally busy Serpentine Swimming Club have the use of this Royal lake known as Lansbury's Lido. It is now normally open only in the summer, but one traditional event occurs each year on New Year's Day, when the ice is broken and brave bathers dive into the cold waters of the lake. The Serpentine will be used for the swimming leg of the triathlon at the London 2012 Olympics. The Serpentine gets its name from its supposedly snakelike, curving shape. It was formed in 1730 when Queen Caroline, wife of George II, ordered the damming of the River Westbourne and other natural ponds in Hyde Park.
